Introduction + new Planet Ocean Master Chronometer
Hi, I've been around for quite a few weeks now and never introduced myself yet.I'm from Holland and bought my first mechanical watch exactly 10 years ago: the Seamaster Professional Chrono.Now I thought it is finally time to give my Seamaster a worthy brother, so I can change between watches.I always liked the Planet Ocean and when a new version was announced, I read all the news and reviews I could find.In about 14 months I'm turning 40, but I just could not wait any longer ;)Last Thursday was the big day.

Here are some pictures.

Help evaluating my late grandfather's Rolex
Hey all, I am very new to the Rolex world. With so many variables that can alter the value of these beautiful watches, I am more than confused and turning to you guys for help. What I think I have is a 50's oyster perpetual. It has the bubble back, has Brevet 6305 1 engraved in it. What I believe to be rare is the fact that it has both justdate in red, and the date numbers are all red. I have attached pictures of the watch, as well as a few with the caseback removed thanks to my friendly local (but Rolex illiterate) jeweler. Any help you could give me [edited] is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
